Ok about 2 months ago I had a sore throat for about 5 days.I had gave my girl oral and also smoked weed off my friend who was sick in the same day.The next morning I woke up I had a sore throat.Im not sure if it came from giving my girl oral or smoking with my sick friend.I went to the doctor and she gave me antibiotics.She said it was most likely a bacteria but it was a slight chance it could be gonorrhea.
I took the antibiotics and got better within 5 days.I sometimes still wonder how I got the sore throat though.Me and my girlfriend always have unprotected sex so I dont know if it was from her.

I havent went down on my girl since this happened cuz Im not too sure where I got the sore throat from.When I went back to my doc she said it was most likely a bacteria infection.
Im not too sure and wanted more opinions on this.Let me know what yall think

Could I have gotten the sore throat from my friend being sick and me smoking off him

i don't really think you could have gotten it from smoking off of your friend.... but it could happen and if your girl had gonorrhea you could have gotten the sore throat from her i'm not to sure i think it's a trick question bacause you can't really know which one it came from

Me and my girl been together for a year and 3 months.We always have unprotected sex.I dont go down on her often,only did it a few times with her.Also my friend had a cold when I smoked with him.Im not sure if it was him and plus it will sound funny if i just come out of nowhere and ask my girl to get tested considering the fact that we been having unprotected sex for months.

What do you think it could be though?Does anybody know

ok but your girlfriend could have caught it from somone else i'm not sayin she cheated on you or anything but i'm pretty sure your gf would understand. maybe both of you need to go get checked just to be 100% sure. and also yes you could have gotten a sore throat from smoking from your friend if your friend had a cold or was sick or whatever. but still at least you need to go get checked and if you do have something so does your gf if you've had unprotected sex.

the symptoms are gone, right? so what's the worry. you can wonder till you're blue in the face, but whats the point. If your friend was sick, it's very probable that you caught his cold. Heck, it might not have even been caused by either of those situations. it could have been just a regular run of the mill sore throats that just happen.. caused by an unknown source, like touching a door knob after some person with a cold touched it, and then touching your mouth.
If you're really worried, get tested. get her tested. if you both come back negative, then you'll know for sure. It's pointless to get worked up over a situation that you're unsure of... it'll just strain your relationship.
